Re: [Matplotlib-users] computer modern

[Nicolas P. <nic...@gm...>]

Thanks, it works well.

However, I forgot that computer modern does not include accented 
characters (unlike latin modern), so I eventually used Stix :

mpl.rc('font', family = 'serif', serif = 'STIXGeneral')

By the way, is there any way to use Stix for sans-serif as well, or even 
cursive and monospace ? I don't know how to do that, since Stix seems to 
contain all of them in a single file (STIXGeneral.ttf) ?
